Register Beep Beep!!

This is so cute!

Milo was walking around the house with his favorite shopping cart and 'pretend shopping'.

He then proceeds to set up a register table and scans all the items and bags them.

I asked him what he was doing...

"I'm shopping at Target!"

Snow day errands with Milo

I went running errands with Milo♥

Here he is riding the shopping cart!

Then we went to Costco to get some necessities.

Stocking up for the impending 2nd snow storm!

The best part is the free food samples we get.

It's so pretty when there's snow on the ground and the sun is out at the same time!

I would love Colorado....

Shopping with Milo♥

We went to Target for some shopping while the other kiddos were at school.

I usually keep Milo in a shopping cart or the stroller but today he wanted to walk around.

He did good! He listened, didn't run off and didn't start any tantrums.

Usually at check-out, the kids will get stickers.

I now have a dedicated sticker book in the car.

(We used to let the kids put the stickers anywhere in the car--but it's so hard getting stickers OFF windows! so we now have a book!)

We love our new spacious van♥

While we waited for class to be over, I let Milo roam around the back. 

Picking out some toys!

Thank you papaw!

Kai was so excited to pick out a toy.

He was set on getting a board game--and we found this really fun game called "Bugs in the Kitchen".

Luka is in a Lego phase right now so he picked out 2 sets to build.

pew pew pew

At the grocery store, buying ingredients for Taco Tuesday

YUM!

The kiddos used to not enjoy eating tacos but every since I started calling it "Build Your Own Taco", the kids are now excited for it.

Gamer boys

Well, it was inevitable.

When you dad works in Video Games, eventually the kids were going to be interested in them.

While they take turns playing, I usually have some time to do some self-shopping♥

It's a win-win.

Toy shopping

A super cute toy shop that we like to visit during our coffee shop playdates♥

Milo fell in love with this roller toy--And since it was the day after his birthday, I bought it for him.

Luka paying for some water toy guns.

So cute!

He felt like a 'big boy'!

Oooo Target has super cute Valentine's Day goodies♥♥

Playtime + Luka's toy shopping!

During Luka's preschool hours, Milo and I hung out at a coffee shop.

We also stopped by the toy store and Milo LOVED this 'Calico Critters' play set.

He was pretend playing with the house♥

Luka was excited to spend more of his Target gift card he got for Christmas!

(Thank you pa-paw!!)

He picked out a Pac-man game toy.

His new 'Dog Baby' which he named 'Luka'.

And a set of Paw Patrol stamps!

♥♥♥

First Shopping♥

So all the kids received gift cards to Target this year from Pa-paw♥

(Thank you!)

Luka immediately wanted to buy himself a toy the next day, so we headed out to Target.

He fell in love with this monster/pet toy.

 He lined up and paid all by himself.

He was so proud! I believe he said something like "I did my first toy shopping Mommy"

He calls the Yeti his "baby".♥

Milo grabbed this teddy bear so we got this for him.

It was on post-Christmas sale so it was only $2.

What a deal!

As for Kai, he didn't find anything.

Maybe we'll wait a few more months for newer toys to appear.

Final holiday shopping

Some last minute holiday shopping.

Target had a fun prop..you take a photo and flip it around!

Now it looks like you're coming down from the chimney♥

The boys LOVE car toys...

I think they're eyeing some toys to get after Christmas.

(Thank you Pa-paw for the gift cards! The boys will have fun doing some self-shopping)

Looking at toys

Stores are in Christmas mode!

I decided to get Milo the Tigger car.  He then found an abandoned toy shopping cart, which he proceeded to put his toy in and push around for the remainder of our stay.

In the end, we left it at the registers but he kept grabbing it again and again.

He wanted to bring it home ^_^ but we already have our own shopping cart toy!

Holiday shopping

Today we met up with Auntie at the downtown mall for some holiday shopping and lunch♥

The mall was decked out in Christmas decor and the kids loved the trees!

Holiday shopping

I went holiday shopping this past weekend with Kai♥

Just the two of us!

We also stumbled upon a Build-A-Bear shop.

I've never done it before...and because of Black Friday, they had a great deal going on.

Buy one get one free!  So Kai and I 'built' a couple bears.

What a fun, interactive shop!

Kai helped with stuffing the bears.

You can customize your bear with clothes and you even get a Birth Certificated printed out.

Kai decided to name his 'Kai', so we named the other bear 'Luka'..for Luka.

He was a great buddy to shop with.

So patient...no tantrums EVER with this guy ♥

Shopping with Luka (& Milo)

While Kai is at school we decided to kill some time at Target.

The toy section of course...!

A lot of Halloween goodies are out!

Luka was fascinated by this skeleton decoration.

Trying to fix his head but it's actually a headless skeleton decor.

A little disturbing but...Luka knows it's a monster.

Nope, I didn't tell him to put the mask on.

He insisted on wearing it.  He picked it out and told me to help put it on.

There ya go... A miniature-almost-hilarious monster!

Sigh...He found a carton of Goldfish at Target and I couldn't say no...

So it's his snack for the day.
